immortal

Narrow-minded and crazy nationalism, a corrupt and selfish military system, and an embarrassing judicial system are like curses on humans. No matter how civilized and modern it is called, these resentful injustices always exist, as if they are as immortal as human history. But along with it, justice and integrity will always exist in human beings, and those who own them bear the mission of passing them on. They use words, paintbrushes, or life, and even life, to show the power of faith. When history discarded the ugliness on the ground to show the unbearable human beings, it also turned these people into stars and dotted the sky, letting them guide our direction. These people may have suffered slander, impoverished, and even lost their lives in their time, and they have not got everything that evil people or even ordinary people should have. But when we look up at them, without any reminder, we already know that they are more immortal than their contemporaries, our time, and the future.

    Just as we were sitting by the fireside playing cards, a mother and son were falling to their death on a bridge outside Paris... Zola's two speeches were wonderful and exemplary!

    OK, except for the performance style
